Cicero S. D. Pa∣pirio Paeto. 25 9 23

I came

yesterday

to Cumane farme:

to morrow

to you

peraduenture.

But

when

I know

the certainty,

I will acquaint you therewith

a little before.

Although

Marcus▪ Ceparius

when

he had met me

in the Hen-wood,

and I had asked him

what you were a do∣ing

said,

that you were

in bedde,

because

you were sticke of the goute,

v. you laboured of the feet.

I tooke the matter forsooth heauily,

as

it was my part:

but yet

I determined

to come

vnto you,

that

I might both sée

you,

and

visite you,

and

suppe with you too:

for I do not thinke

that you haue

a gouty Cooke too.

Then looke for

a guest,

as no great eater,

so

an enemy

to chargeable sup∣pers.

Fare you well.
